I don't know about the phone." Kids her age have phones, Mizz Lee," I said."Oh, I know ... Edward, I don't want her to be one of those children wander...ing around with their faces in their electronic devices." Oh, Gramma, I won't be like that," Dana assured her.Mizz Lee touched Dana's head lightly. "Dear, don't take advantage of good people. Edward is a good person." I won't, Gramma.
